World gen is done by the respective addons, so I moved this to BSkyBlock. It sounds like a reasonable request. I always wonder if players ever realize there's a ceiling up there!

I had to show my friend that it was a there in the server he was buying glow stone from my shop and I'm like "yo look up" he was amazed and he has been playing the server off and on for over two years. Also thanks for moving this but this should be added not to just Bskyblock but to all of them. If you are worried about the nether being too over powered just think of the regular nether having so much nether quartz and skyblock doesn't have that

Noted.

When can i expect this to be a thing or is it too early to tell?

johncsuti avatar Dec 24 '19 04:12 johncsuti

Maybe this holiday period.

Well, I couldn't do any coding, but I'll be looking at this.

tastybento avatar Jan 07 '20 00:01 tastybento

Okay sounds good! As long as you make it so it will regenerate the top of the nether and keep islands.

johncsuti avatar Jan 07 '20 03:01 johncsuti

I'm not sure what you mean exactly, but chunks are only re/generated when an island is deleted. So current islands won't magically have the ore. This would be something that would occur for new islands and resets if it was applied to an already running game, unfortunately.

tastybento avatar Jan 07 '20 18:01 tastybento

I was wanting to have this but not have to regenerate the islands. So no one losses progress on there nether.

Hello, It should be possible to disable this feature, for example I wouldn't want it. Otherwise I'd have to adapt to it. I wouldn't mind, either.

This enhancement got stalled because it would only work for new chunks and not retroactively change old chunks. Is it still desired?

tastybento avatar May 04 '20 00:05 tastybento

Yes even if a full reset is needed. However I like the idea of only updating chunks with an island reset or new island.

If you aren't using a shop or the magic generator, being able to mine quartz is crucial to create andesite, granite, diorite etc.

Gravel also generates naturally in the nether. Having gravel generate up near the ceiling would be good too.

Gravel is useful to combine with dirt to make coarse dirt and then be hoe'd back into dirt otherwise you have to do a ton of challenges to get the dirt you need.

We couldn't do gravel since it has gravity associated with it. Thus it would spawn there and cause massive lag when the player first goes through the portal. Causing most clients/server hosters to stop the server.

johncsuti avatar Jun 04 '20 12:06 johncsuti

How much control of world generation do you have? Can you just specify that the gravel has to be on top of netherrack so it doesnt fall when people go through?

opticyclic avatar Jun 04 '20 14:06 opticyclic

Yes, this is possible. I tell you what, if someone could create a 1 chunk nether ceiling and share the blueprint, then that would be a useful template.
